I believe that you can open up the map and see the captured unit actually on the map hex in which you will find it.

Tried that, but didn't see anything, hence my question.

You have to check all german core units with shift-click -> trigger
Core units without trigger are only for the stand alone scenario, core units with trigger are the units you search.

I wrote in the scenario-editor features-wishes, that would be nice to have some filters for showing units on the map (for example only show core units with triggers).
Perhaps in the furure??

"Prize" and "Reward" were given after destroying the four hangars:
Hangar 1 (13, 26)
Hangar 2 (9, 30)
Hangar 3 (18, 28)
Hangar 4 (15, 31).
As a additional bonus the Pz IIIJ and the Me 109F are SE-units.

Found a Firefly at Mirpur Khas (56, 18) during the Road to India battle. Nice little tank.

If you go down the "loser's path" (i.e. you lose the battle of Alam Halfa) you get a US M10 at Haidra (18,6) in Kasserine Pass.

in Second Offensive the reward units will arrive only if you capture El Aghelia quickly enough! (in my case turn 9-10)

Hangers or supply dump? Supply dump being the 10 strength tent.

Hangers. They are to the left (or west) of the supply dumps out in the desert.

Sweet! Going to try that now. Thx!

In dash to the wire I didn't get my four units to the AZ quick enough
so I missed out on the DV. The four hangers however are smoking craters.
The three "reward" units took the sting out of MV.

In second offensive I split my forces in two keeping one force on the
north victory hex and driving the second group south.
Captured the southern victoryhex in ten turns and was awarded with
the three Italian reward units and three or four aux units.
from the south I sent back a few select units north to recapture
and reinforce The victory hex's there. Everyone else went north east
to "liberate" the VH up there.

Six free units in two scenarios will come in handy later on I'm sure.

Btw, in an earlier post someone gave the exact locations of the hangers.
I found that they were not quite in the same location but a few
hex's N,S,E or West of where they were reported. Does the location change?

P.S. Thanks for the tips, Cheers!

I'm sure I posted the correct position of my game but I played the scenario only once. Maybe they change the position slightly game by game.

Restarted the scenario again just to have a look and they back to where you reported them. I guess they do move around.

Ha! After much digging on this forum I found my answer.

I started replaying the AK campaign not long ago. When I got to the Second Offensive, I was puzzled why I did not receive the hero Italian units. Now I know why. There's a time limit! Thank you long-ago poster!
